Getting close now to the WOYWW 6th anniversary and as usual my mind turns towards the ATC for the swap and something to make for the crop, like the little pointy eared fellows from last year. This time I wanted to have something that I could mail, and I think I cracked it.

The Cricut mat on the left has the template, created and sized for the ATC I have in mind. I did in using a combination of an online” gift-card” download, my Intaglio drawing program, my Cricut with SCAL and a LOT of trial and error. I even found a use for the bajillion loom bands that litter the floor in every room of my house. DD is still hopelessly addicted to making them.

I have a couple of experimental versions – and no, clicking the photo won’t make it bigger so you can get a better look!- some easier than others, but I am limited by the tools I own. There is no way I am going to be able to make more than a handful. I have the structure of the ATC already sorted bit the design of it is a different matter. I am loving my ATC displays and already thinking I need to make one specifically for the 6th.

I still haven’t worked out the best way to make one that handles both portrait AND landscape ATCs in the same hanger…
